Poll: Are you going away this bank holiday weekend?

Let us know.

THE AUGUST BANK holiday weekend is almost upon us.

Some people might choose to chill out at home for the weekend, some may be packing up and heading off to somewhere in Ireland or abroad, and some might have to work.

For those staying in Ireland, the forecast is looking rather rainy. It’s set to be wet and very windy tomorrow night and early on Saturday, but the rain is due to clear a bit by the afternoon.

Sunday looks set to be a bright day, but rain will return on Monday.

So, today we want to know… Are you going away this bank holiday weekend?
